(From GTW64) :

Bobby Bounce Back, was being done for Dynamic Developments, a relatively unknown company – according to Wayne Billingham. The game was being written by Chris Walsh (Creator of Murder on the C64) and Wayne Billingham (Alien Storm and Mega Twins graphics), who were creating a game which borrowed a bit here and there from Bubble Bobble. Essentially it was a kind of Bubble Bobble clone with trampolines.

The game was completed after a lot of hard work, but the publisher sadly went down the pan and the game wasn’t touted to other publishers. Chris Walsh went onto other projects such as Murder and Bobby Bounce Back was long forgotten about.

In recent times Wayne got in touch with GTW and sent us a load of disks and tapes… on these were various preview states of Bobby Bounce Back, but best of all was a tape with the *full* game fully preserved as it pretty much would have been released! GTW is proud to finally present to you the full game and all its preview versions (Which are quite different!) and graphic files!

We wouldn’t have the full game preserved though if it wasn’t for "The Chaos Engineer", who very kindly fixed up the heavily bugged TAP images which you can now try out and play the game. "Glenn Rune Gallefoss" and "Skeletor" have also been beavering away at ripping everything from tape and producing an awesome Disk version of the full game. A big hats off to these guys!

The game is massive and comes with 70-80 levels in total and with a proper ending screen. The game’s main character looks like Titanic Blinky with a hi-res overlay. It has its issues, but its a neat and fun little game with some great graphics and good music. It is kind of a Super Seymour style game and we are really happy to have salvaged it from obscurity. But also its previews too, which contains different musics and also different graphics in places.
